Trump says Iran talks moving along as Middle East conflict widens

President Trump said negotiations with Iran are progressing and a deal could be imminent even as the Middle East conflict widens, with Iran reportedly firing at Israel and Yemen’s Houthis involved in attacks and concerns mounting over oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz. Tehran has urged a ceasefire, while Trump floated options that could include significant actions against Iran, noting the talks are occurring directly and indirectly and that a deal could come “extremely well” but timeline remains unclear.
